If you can not contribute regularly or email once per month, you will be removed from the group.~~** We welcome you into our group, we are an active group and share lots of experiences of our family life on this message board. We hope that you will become an active member of the group and would like to ask that you post regularly and not just "lurk" within the group. In order to keep our group personal and valid, we therefore reserve the right to terminate your membership if the moderators feel that you are not posting often enough. We know that sometimes situations are such that posting may prove difficult, and all that we ask is if you could let the group know that you are unable to post at present and we will keep your membership valid. Similarly, if we do remove your membership facility, you are of course, able to reapply to join if you wish to do so. We hope that you will understand our reasons for being so strict about membership - it's what protects our group and keeps it the safe and friendly environment it is. All information given on this internet mailing list is that of the individual. Any information, be it medical or personal is only the opinion of the original poster.
